Shareholders


BNG Bank's share ownership is restricted by its Articles of Association to the State of the Netherlands, provinces, municipalities, water boards and other public bodies.

 

Half of the bank's share capital is held by the State of the Netherlands and the other half by more than 95% of all the municipal authorities, 11 of the 12 provincial authorities and a waterboard.

 

Changes in the present stakeholder structure are not expected. The central government's 50% stake has been held since 1921. Strong commitment of the central government to its holding was evidenced by its participation in the most recent issue of shares in 1990 in order to maintain its 50% stake.
